A politician from one of the modern countries that still imprisons people for lese-majesty wants to end social media anonymity? Sounds like a great idea!
-
Lese-magesty?

If you offend the royal family you can get punished. There was a case some year back about a rapper that sought asylum in the Netherlands or Belgium I think, as he risked imprisonment in Spain due to his song lyrics criticizing the royal family. It's crazy to me that one could seek asylum fron an EU country in a different EU country

Ok spanish pm show us your ID and your home address
-
Agreed
-
-
That would definitely help kill social media.
-
Fuck that guy!
-
I'd rather not fuck him

Typical politician, identifies the problem only to draw the absolute wrong conclusion.
-
Individual privacy cannot be infringed. The measures against corporations are a good idea. The rest are only good for official accounts so public officials cannot be impersonated. For private individuals, accountability only needs to happen when they enact violence.
-
Yeah, tell him all the ways that would be dangerous.
You won't stop any crime or even any hurt feelings by doing that. You're only going to punish people who are following the law.
Criminals can fake their details
-
will this be the final push to make p2p the norm ?
-
-
The same as a firearms registry keeps guns out of the hands of criminals?
-
I will as long as he will livestream with audio his entire life 24-7.
-
And that's gonna fix the yt comment section? People are just dicks that's all.
-
Hahahahaahahah

I've always thought thered be some benefit to this but only as an optional government funded app.
-
there's no benefit to any common man.
There's only benefit to the advertising companies and governments around the world.
It's a little something called "total information awareness" they want to know who everyone is and what they're doing at every second of every day
-
I think humanity as a whole needs to get and stay really really high.

Lol wannabe Stasi fucks

Yeah, saw him making the point at his presentation at the WEF's Davos a little while ago. WEF doing WEF things. It blows my mind that despite so many people who think the WEF's weird technocratic dystopia wetdreams are some weird conspiracy, all you have to do to see what they are all about and how true it all is, is to go through their site, reading between the lines of their white papers and past their creep, overly positive marketing and slogans, or watch their YT channel.

@schnurrito@discuss.tchncs.de calls to end premiership of Pedro Sanchez

Good luck, we now have Bastyon, fully decentralized twitter style platform. It's over.
-
I have been scrolling on the front page for a couple of minutes now, and I was going to write that it's literally all conspiracy theories, but that's not true, there's also some "sponsored" posts AKA ads sprinkled in.
What a sad joke.
If you think the fediverse is too centralized, you can always host your own instance. You get all the same "free speech" benefits (plus no free-speech ban on drugs and porn), without having to put one foot into that cesspit of a site.
Edit: oh, and that has to be the worst moderation system ever devised - at least if you are a woman or any kind of minority. Good fucking luck in finding a random jury of users who will ever, ever ban a racist or sexist piece of shit on a platform like this. Come to think of it, that's probably the idea and justification behind the system: being able to loudly proclaim "we have a democratized ban system ensuring moderator overreach is impossible!" does make a great dogwhistle for "you can be a terrible human on here, don't worry"

Blockchain-based social media is stupid and doomed for failure
-
I think you may be a bit off the mark on that prediction. Bastyon already has an order of magnitude more users than Lemmy.

This is only the website, there are also ~100k app users.

Had never heard about it but it comes across as a very noisy place with lots of Gadsen flags and videos about Disney supplying kids to Epstein :-/
-
What are the advantages over Mastodon? Is it compatible with ActivityPub?
-
No, it is not. Mastodon is federated, this means your account is owned by the instance owner and can be banned. Bastyon is decentralized meaning there is no owner, your content can be blocked if there is a report and a random jury of high reputation users unanimously agrees that rules have been violated.
-
-
I have never heard of Bastyon before. I have an account on there. It would be helpful if it had a libre app to use.
-
They do, the website is just a portal to the network for exposure. Using the app is the real Bastyon.
